Picking out the Christmas tree

This year Daddy decided we would pick out a ready to plant Christmas tree. For some reason Austin thought this would be a good idea. I don't think he realized it is not quite as fun as going to the tree farm and cutting one down. Oh well. We went to a greenhouse in town and found a perfect tree. We had to get a shorter/smaller one this year since space is VERY limited. We decided to give ourselves an early Christmas present - a 42" flat screen TV - although it is awesome it limits our Christmas tree space. I guess you can't have everything. The kids had fun picking out the tree and decorating. Turns out bigger isn't always better - the little tree is perfect!

Austin liked this one the best - everyone (minus Mommy) in front of the tree

Austin, Shelby & Daddy did an excellent job decorating - only one broken ornament this year
